By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Memorial Day weekend. Of course, on a day like today we remember those who have died while serving our great country. It’s also a day filled with BBQs, food, family and relaxing (something we can do because of those the day honors). I hope my U.S. readers had a lovely andContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: May 25, 2015 (Memorial Day)”

Monday Inspiration: April 27, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello my friends, A lovely Monday morning to ya! Can I just say, that between Friday and today, I have learned many things. One thing being that life happens while we make plans. (This is something we know, but when it hits you ironically, then, well, I guess it’s different–it’s kind of like theContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: April 27, 2015”
Let it Breathe
Be kind to your sleeping heart. Take it out in the vast field of light and let it breathe. Hafiz [Image from Tumblr]
Sunday Girl: March 15, 2015
Ello. This week is going to be filled with accomplishments, non-stop work and some spring-ish weather. I can feel it. I hope you have an awesome week. My brother sent me this song, and I love it. Soundtrack: Remain, by Royal Tailor [Colin Firth in What a Girl Wants] “Beware how you give your heart.”Continue reading “Sunday Girl: March 15, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: March 2, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello my fellow Monday survivors. I hope those of you on spring break are having a blast. Yesterday, I walked through hail. So, as you can see, winter has not loosened its grip on NYC. March has begun. Some of us soon-to-be-graduates are feeling giddy, distressed, nervous, heartbroken, empowered and definitely busy. I don’t knowContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: March 2, 2015”
This Month’s Picks: February 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz February took us by storm. Winter storm. Ha. What a month. I could use a month to recuperate from February, but no such thing. March madness is here! The ICC Cricket World Cup has been a blast so far (probably because my team is doing well; Go India!). This month has hadContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: February 2015”
Wednesday Musings: February 11, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello fellow survivors of this world. I hope your week is going splendidly. This week, I have been so impressed with how God orchestrates paths to cross for people to help each other. It’s weird how in a person’s most desperate time, he or she might stumble upon another who wants to walk alongsideContinue reading “Wednesday Musings: February 11, 2015”
Complex Math
“There is a sense in which two and two are four, the plane of ledgers and cashbooks – on which these propositions are approximately sound. But if you rise from that plane to a loftier one, you will find at once that they are untenable … it is obviously untrue that half-a-baby and half-a-baby makeContinue reading “Complex Math”
Tanto Que Decir
Por Gabriela Yareliz Cielo azul con borde amarillo. El sol se va y se busca un espejo. La luna se viste de dorado, y nos manda recuerdos en cada rayo. Cada día, el cielo nos cuenta una historia; Con sus partes tormentosas, y sus partes de calor. Las estrellas, las pestañas de una mirada queContinue reading “Tanto Que Decir”
/Why then do we not despair?/
Anna Akhmatova’s poem: “Everything is Plundered, Betrayed, Sold” Everything is plundered, betrayed, sold, Death’s great black wing scrapes the air, Misery gnaws to the bone. Why then do we not despair? By day, from the surrounding woods, cherries blow summer into town; at night the deep transparent skies glitter with new galaxies. And the miraculousContinue reading “/Why then do we not despair?/”
